I did pretty good on the inclass questions. On some I missed many in some and in some I got them all right. I did amazing on the out-of-the-flashlight. For my final assignment I did great I put in everything I did that because it was a big topic and I had a lot to say about that. For, figurative I didn't do as well at the beginning then I did great. On my final assingment I did okay.


I am in jail!” murmured to Winnie to herself.
I hope Mae, Angus, Jesse, and Miles get home safely thought Winnie.I think I have made the right decision. The Tucks love me and I love them to. I heard the constable coming over so I hid even better. I kept saying to myself that I hope the constable will never find me. I kept thinking about all the good moments I had with Tucks.I think I have learned more in two weeks then I have learned all my life! Those Tucks care for me as much as my parents they are like my second parents. Jesse was like my brother and Miles was also, Angus was my father, and Mae was my mom. I remembered all the moments when the Tucks stood up for me. One time when I stood up for them has put me in this place right now. I think I deserve to be here right know because all Mae was trying to do was protect me. She thought the man in the yellow suit was going to kidnap me and treat me bad. I also can’t believe that the name the Tucks were called when the constable came was kidnappers. Well, I thought they were kidnapers at first. They are my friends now.I know Mae, she wouldn’t do anything like that on purpose. It seems like that whole journey was my life. I can remember my moments with Jesse. I don’t know if I should drink the water the Tucks regret it from drinking the water. It was a good times to reflect on those things. But, most of all I am scared I will get caught by the constable because of his chubby look. After, I thought more about the wheel of life how it works and goes around and comes back right to you. Angus was really big about the wheel I never thought of life that way. I feel really bad for him because all he wanted to do was die you could tell when the man in the yellow suit died he was jealous. Those Tucks are normal people thy are suffering a lot. I mean it feels good to live for ever when your not. There is really no good thing about living forever. If I never knew about how they lived forever I would’ve thought they were regular people and nothing was different. After these many years it would get boring to be the same age keeping a secret how they lived or ever. I really liked the pond because it was a silent time and it was a good place to think about important stuff. Angus taught me a lot, he nows a lot because he has stayed around here for ages. It has been really tough for him, I can imagine. For a minute, I was thinking about Jesse I liked him but I think I shouldn’t drink the water I don’t want to suffer what the Tucks are going to suffer forever. I like the Tucks I bond with them well because they let me be free. They know how it feels they all most are going through the same problem. After, I returned home I think my family has been treating me different I have never been treated this way. Then the Constable entered and pulled the blanket. I screamed as loud as a bullhorn. The Constable almost fell.
“He said what are you doing in here.”
“He said again stirring some trouble?”





















I did a good job on the summeries but I could have tried a little harder and made a better summary. I did the intoductions the best it was really easy for me to right how the stories releated to the main theme. I did really good on the new group section for Shirley. It was the best work of the year. I put a lot of thought into it I took my time on it. I planned it before I worte it. It made it a lot easier. I did amazing job on facilating the discussion on the blog. I kept up with that and I kept checking if someone had commented on the story. I didn't do a good in the small group discussions. I have never done good on the discussions. I led the group really good since the group was really small. I did okay on the comprehending the stories I read

I think in the year Boar seemed like an easy book but it had a deeper meaning. In the question test I usually got a couple questions wrong. The question I got wrong were the ones you had to infer on. The ones that I have to think were a little hard. The ones that I can find in the book were easy the ones I have to infer were difficult. I usually was right I was off a couple of times. I didn’t really participate in the small group discussion.

I had a tough time thinking about what I believed. I liked doing for what the character belived was easier. It was easy planning out the paragraph but it was harder to get all those thought's in the paragraph. I really liked reading and listening to all those belief. I didn’t really think I did that good on the one it about me. It was easier to listen to them then righting them. My favorite one was Dr. kings. It was better planning it out that made the assignment easier. I think it was going to be easy but it was pretty hard. I wasn't that big of a fan of it. My idea wasn't big enough. The one with the Character was so easy because of the big book.




Maniac Magge is the third book we read.

I read the books in a good place. I inferred a lot while I was reading the book. I made a lot more progress from the last book I read.I really liked the book. I didn't like the ending very much.My final Blog I did was pretty good and used a couple of figurative sentences. I get what figurative sentances . My essay was the best work of all. I think that was my best piece of work. I think I could of made it even better by adding more content. I think that next time I will do my bog posts on word and then copy and paste it on the actual blog.

A main idea of the book Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli is home. Home is a place where your welcome. A place where you can enter without knocking.And a place you can stay without asking.I think being home is a place where you can be relaxed without anyone bothering you. also A place where you can be comfortable. A place I can feel happy and sad at the same time. A place where you are with your family. I can just go do something without asking. One main Character in the book is the legend Maniac Magee. One family he stays with is the Beals they are a black family and he is a white person. They are a good family. The Mcanabs are a horrible Family on the other hand. They pretty much think that home is a huge piece of trash. They have never seen the value of home. Maniac might think that home is nothing at the beginning. Because it hasn't been that important to him in the beginning. Now it is everything he wants.

The Beals were a great family he stayed with. The family respected him a lot. respected the Beals too. He helped the family to settle down. He played with Hester and Lester and helped the family do chores. Another thing was that he was white and the Beals were black. He finally felt like he had a home that was real. But when he went somewhere people would start calling him names. one name that was really popular was FISHBELLY. He thought that he caussed too much trouble. He still thought he need a little more. So he choose to live. The Beals were so sad that they started crying. The girl of Mrs. Beal amanda. She was so said that she choose to set him up to stay. He was so close to to fulfilling his dream. That was having a home. I think that Maniac hasn't learned the full term of family. Which is it does't matter what happens to you. You still can stay with your family. That's why your family is what it is. It's there when you need it. It makes you feel comfortable and happy and cares when you need then to.


The Mcnabs were a family that was not together but they were a family. I think the Mcnabs were half way of being a true family. Maniac at this point in the book has relized how important a home is and a family is and education. While Maniac stays with the Mcnabs . He try to do all of that with the little kids. Some of it works and some of the things don't. A main thing that Maniac did was paid for the School. A regular father would pay for their child tuition. But instead Maniac has to pay for it. Plus regular kids wouldn't dare other kids for them to go to school. Maniac realize it isn't the kids fault it is the dad's. The kids haven't got taught the right thing. Jeffry realized That the mcnabs really care about Maniac. The Mcnabs don't see the value of home and family. Maniac see the value of home and family big time. Because he doesn't have any one of those fully. Maniac is very friendly and caring. Maniac learned a lot from the mcnabs and the beals.



Maniac went to the home he started with at the end. He felt very happy and comfortable because. He could walk in without asking. At the end Maniac learned different types of family and home. He thought it was nesscery to have a family and a home. Home is very important. It sounds so simple just "Home". Home is more important then it sounds.
















 The second book we read in 5th grade is a choice. I picked My side of the mountain it was very good book.

I really liked it because a boy chose to ran away from on purpose. I think I did great on the blog on thick and thin. My group was not the best we were ok cooperating but we didn't have right facts and we didn't produce the best the best work. I read slower and productive. We usally didn't have things on time usally the blog. My best work was diarama was the best. I took my time doing the diarama. I messed up then re did it.

The first book we read was Island Of The Blue Dolphins




I realized while I was reading the book I liked to read the book and and not answer the questions. I think it was hard it was to right the paragraphs and read and answer the questions. I could have focused more on it I will pay more attenion on the work and try my hardest on it. I will try to read in a quiter place in my house. I am going to be thinking about the paragraphs while i am readig the book. I will try to slow down a little bit be cause I made careless. My paragraph was pretty good I think I can add a little moe contex in my paragraph. I think I was rushed a little in the Friendship paragrph. My favorite friendship was plain friendship. I did good on the Karana inspiration Becuse I was very prepaired for that. I did very good on the web + paragrph.

Here is my best work my web it is down below. It in because i took out time to make the we. Also I made a awsome design. I wrote down all the ideas on a piece of paper it made it easier for the final paragraph.
